I have an old Remington 760 Gamemaster in good condition in the 223 caliber. To the best of my memory it was purchased by my Dad in 1967 or 68. I'm wondering what it is worth? I went to bow hunting,for more of a challenge and now have arthritus and can't use either one, and have no children to give it to. I can supply pixs etc. Since digital photography took over as my[:(] hobby. I have several other guns I'm interested in selling to support my new habit. 
)I just looke for a serial # and if it's localed when you pull the action back it's 444003
Thanks
